The quarterback chaos in Cleveland is perfect!Browns head coach Hue Jackson has already changed his mind – and on Wednesday, Rookie DeShone Kizer was once again the starter.
According to Jackson’s official team website, Kizer learned a lot from watching the game from the sidelines in Houston last Sunday:”I think if you can see some of the things that happened to yourself from outside with someone else – things that hurt your team – then you understand that.The turnovers put the team at great risk.”
Exactly a week ago, Jackson Kizer had degraded to backup after five starts and replaced it with Kevin Hogan.Cleveland’s coach explained the decision as follows:”At this moment it is better for him and his development to be the backup.
This makes the 180-degree spin even more surprising after only seven days and a desolate game by Hogan against the Texans – and increasingly only allows one conclusion to be drawn: For Jackson, the Cleveland game is all about his own job.
Kizer played 50.9 percent of his passes for 851 yards and three touchdowns over the first five games, throwing nine exceptions and three fumbles.Hogan had 140 passing yards, a touchdown and three picks against Houston on Sunday.
